Happy Independence Day!!

Today an overflow crowd is at Woodburn Dragstrip, all here to Honor a Great Man, a true Legend. Today is Jim Livingston's Celebration of Life here at his favorite place on the Planet - Woodburn Dragstrip.

So many stories and memories are being shared. Lots of laughter interspersed with a few tears. Jim had a huge impact on all of us who call this Track Home and it's a tribute to the caliber of Man he was that so many are here on a very warm day- All to pay tribute to Jim. He will forever be missed, but his legacy will continue for a very long time.

Robbie Sours Lawrence and I are honored to be here to celebrate Jim.

WHOO HOO!! We made it!! 😎

We are Stacked next to a number of Pro Teams and will Pit tomorrow AM.

Pomona Bound~

We were late leaving, having to wait for our ridiculously tardy Bell Housing to return from its annual recertification, but we finally hit the road a couple of hours ago. We're at our first stop for Fuel & Burgers at our favorite (albeit very rustic) K & R Drive In at Rice Hill.

Hoping to make it most of the way today - Just before the Grapevine, prayerfully. Either way, we are planning on pulling into the Track tomorrow afternoon.

Major League Thanks to Eugene William Asphalt for their generous support. It is their assistance that makes these longer road trips possible. They are some of the best people I have ever met.

We will report back as we have more to share.
Thanks for following us.

These are two of the original wheel-standers that I grew up with. I am quite familiar with the Hemi Under Glass, but I saw the Little Red Wagon run at Balboa a handful of times.

Balboa is a long-gone Dragstrip that was in Eugene, Oregon and is where I was first introduced to Top Fuel Dragsters and Funny Cars. It is also where my Dad ran his Car. My Dad liked to be different - His Car had a Buick Straight-8 with 4 Rochester 2-Barrel Carbs, a Vertex Mag ...... And straight Pipes - No Collectors. But, he was successful, running under the National Record for E Dragster..... A very long time ago now.

In the Pic, my Dad is in the Car, his Brother, my Uncle Tim in our Grocery Getter/Push Car '67 GTO, my Mom in the bitchin' shorts, and well, that leaves the toe-headed kid - That's me...... A very long time ago.
